OREGON® CHAIN SAW
MODEL CS1500-091
• Carry the chain saw by the front
handle with the chain saw switched
off and away from your body. When
transporting or storing the chain saw
always fit the guide bar cover (Fig. 3).
Proper handling of the chain saw will reduce
the likelihood of accidental contact with the
moving saw chain.
FIG. 3
• Follow instructions for lubricating,
chain tensioning and changing
accessories. Improperly tensioned or
lubricated chain may either break or
increase the chance of kickback.
• Keep handles dry, clean and free of
oil and grease. Greasy, oily handles are
slippery causing loss of control.
• Cut wood only. Do not use the chain
saw for purposes not intended. For
example: do not use chain saw for
cutting plastic, masonry or non-wood
building materials. Use of the chain saw
for operations different than intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
• It is recommended that the first time
user should have practical instruction
in the use of the chain saw and the
recommended protective equipment
from an experienced operator. The
initial practice should be cutting logs
on a saw-horse or cradle.
F/N 570773 - AC 0614
• Other than the wear parts identified
in this manual, the chain saw has no
user serviceable parts.
• The work piece, bar and chain can be
hot after cutting. Wear gloves to avoid
burns.
• Prolonged use of power tools has
been reported to cause vascular,
muscular and/or neurological
disorders (such as vibration white
finger or Raynaud's syndrome),
particularly when operating the
tool in cold weather. If you experience
numbness or loss of feeling in your
extremities, stop using the tool until
symptoms fade. To reduce the incidence
of vibration induced trauma, follow these
instructions:
– Wear gloves and keep hands and body
warm.
– Maintain a firm grip on the chain saw,
but do not use prolonged, excessive
pressure. Let the chain saw do the
work.
– Assure that the cutting system is
maintained properly.
– Take frequent breaks.
The vibration in normal use can differ from
the stated values in this manual, depending
on the material being cut, maintenance of
the cutting system and other factors.
• Keep the cord behind you, and know
the position of the cord at all times.
Keeping the cord behind you and knowing
the position of the cord will help minimize
tripping hazards and prevent severing of the
cord with the chain saw.
• If the cord is cut or damaged,
immediately stop using the chain saw
and disconnect the cord from the
mains. A damaged or cut cord increases the
risk of electrical shock.
• When used in a wet environment use
a GFCI with a tripping current of less
than 30mA. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk
of electric shock.
